## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

Example prompt: Can you skip trace 742 Evergreen Terrace, Springfield, IL 62704 — I want to find the owner's name, phone number, and email address?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to find contact information (phones, emails) for a person or property owner given a physical address, or when you need to identify who owns or resides at a specific address. Especially useful for real estate research, lead generation, or locating individuals. If you already have the person's full name and want to skip owner discovery, set find_owner to false and supply first_name and last_name directly.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for the provided address or name combination
- Missing required fields: first_name and last_name are required when find_owner is false
- Invalid state abbreviation or malformed address
- Address not found in skip trace database
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance (x402 payment required)
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded
